Wauchope Men’s Veteran Golfers


Next Tuesday 25th November is Single Stroke Bi-Monthly Medal, also Putting competition sponsored by Al Muller and Bill Wagner (thank you, Al and Bill). At the present there is only one spot available. So get in if you are looking for a game.

When booking for a fortnights time, you will be booking for Hams Day on the 9th December, it is a 8:00am shotgun start  , no visitors, lunch will be served after the game. Also on Hams Day we are looking to put a motion to the members which will change the constitution slightly to allow for the proposed Membership Management Plan to be put in place. I have attached the constitution change document, it is also on the Noticeboard in the Club. Hams Day, tickets will be given to all players who have qualified for a ham on Tuesday 2nd December. It will be in the form of an envelope with Ham Ticket. If you are unable to play or attend on Tuesday 9th December, proxy information may be written on the back of the envelope and the envelope presented with Ham ticket inside by the nominated proxy on the day. The sheet with the number of games players have played is on the Notice Board in the Club.

The club took a Bus to Nambucca Heads last Friday, it was a full bus, and others travelled by car. There were 33 players all together, although the wind blew strong and consistent all day and we got in before the thunderstorm. It brought the best out in the wind players, the event was won by Peter Abell with 38 points congratulations Pete!, he received a Nambucca Shirt donated by the Pro Steve, Runner-up was Bob Harmer with 36 points c/b from Mike Luschwitz also with 36 points. Highlight of the day was Ian Bain had a HOLE IN ONE on the 5th Hole, congratulations Ian. He didn’t see it go into the hole, but nearly everybody knew about it by the noise of his playing partners. The ball rundown went to 15 points, which means everybody got a ball. Thank you Allan Brooke for driving the bus! It was a good away Club event, I have booked us in again at Nambucca for Friday 13th November 2015 (just for those suspicious people).

The Zone 12 Championships were held at South West Rocks on Friday, they also had their share of the wind.  Wauchope only had 2 players, Rod Millican and Bob Maggs. Rod reports, Overall Gross Winner is Greg Christie with 83, Overall Nett Winner is Kevin Hill with 63. Rod Millican won the A Grade Straight Drive and had a nett 77 and Bob Maggs had a nett 76. Thank you for representing Wauchope. Next year we will be looking to increase the amount of representatives from Wauchope also put in a bid to hold the Zone Championships at Wauchope in 2016.
